We should definitely fix the problems that make us incompatible with Java 7, 
and then make that our recommended  version (and switch out build systems). But 
staying compatible with Java 6, if that's possible, would also be a good thing.

The future is Java 7+, but I think we need to be 6 compatible for a while. 
There will be lots of teams out there that will not be pleased if there is a 
sudden loss of support for 6. As you know, it can be seriously disruptive
